Abstract

We consider a new nonlinear relaxation for the Constrained Maximum Entropy Sampling Problem — the problem of choosing the s × s principal submatrix with maximal determinant from a given n × n positive definite matrix, subject to linear constraints. We implement a branch-and-bound algorithm for the problem, using the new relaxation. The performance on test problems is far superior to a previous implementation using an eigenvalue-based relaxation.
